偶像勵志英語演講 41:讓父母為你驕傲(1)

Thank you, all. Thank you, President Spar, Ms. Golden, President Tilghman, Members of the Board of Trustees, distinguished faculty, proud swelling parents and family, and gorgeous Class of 2010. If you are all really, really lucky, and if you continue to work super hard, and you remember your thank you notes and everybody's name; and you follow through on every task that's asked of you and also somehow anticipate problems before they even arise and you somehow sidestep disaster and score big.

感謝今天到場的所有聽眾，撒皮主席，戈登女士，迪格曼主席，董事會的全體成員，尊敬的全體教員們，自豪的家長們，以及出色的2010屆畢業(yè)生們，謝謝你們的捧場。如果你們足夠幸運，如果你們繼續(xù)努力工作，并且銘記你要感謝的每個人的名字，努力完成每項交給你們的任務(wù)，并且能夠在發(fā)生問題之前未卜先知，及時避免這些問題的發(fā)生，那么你就能夠避開災難并且取得巨大成功。

If you get great scores on your LSATS, or MSATS, or ERSATS or whatever. And you get into your dream grad school or internship which then leads to a super job with a paycheck commensurate with responsibilities of leadership or if you somehow get that documentary on a shoe-string budget and it gets accepted at Sundance and maybe it wins Sundance and then you go on to be nominated for an Oscar and then you win the Oscar.

如果你們在各種入學考試中取得好成績，如法學院入學考試、醫(yī)學院入學考試等，并且進入了你們夢寐以求的研究院，或者獲得了某個崗位的實習機會，這些都為你將來找到一份薪水與你的領(lǐng)導能力相稱的好工作鋪平了道路;或者你用極小的預算拍攝的紀錄片入選了圣丹斯電影節(jié)并得了獎，然后得到了奧斯卡提名，并贏得了奧斯卡獎。
